Normally, each elemental type has 3 strengths, 3 weaknesses, and one immunity, both when dealing and receiving damage. For example, when dealing damage, [[Flame type|Flame]] type attacks do extra damage to the [[Wind type|Wind]], [[Frost type|Frost]] and [[Machine type|Machine]] types, reduced damage to the [[Earth type|Earth]], [[Flame type|Flame]] and [[Water type|Water]] types, and no damage at all to the [[Plasma type|Plasma]] type. When receiving damage, Flame type creatures take more damage from [[Earth type|Earth]], [[Wind type|Wind]] and [[Water type|Water]] type attacks, less from [[Flame type|Flame]], [[Frost type|Frost]] and [[Machine type|Machine]] type attacks, and no damage at all from [[Crystal type|Crystal]] type attacks.

The Intryon universe has 16 distinct elemental types which can be used anywhere that a type chart/table is required. They can be used to group different types of creatures as well as weapons or attacks.

Normally, each elemental type has 3 strengths, 3 weaknesses, and one immunity, both when dealing and receiving damage. For example, when dealing damage, Flame type attacks do extra damage to the Wind, Frost and Metal types, reduced damage to the Earth, Flame and Water types, and no damage at all to the Plasma type. When receiving damage, Flame type creatures take more damage from Earth, Wind and Water type attacks, less from Flame, Frost and Metal type attacks, and no damage at all from Crystal type attacks.

The only exception is the Mundane type, which does not have any strengths or weaknesses.
